Large locking leather saddlebags with pics

They are from viking Product No: VLX600S Dimensions: 17.50"x11"x6"
Capacity: 2310 Cubic Inches, Disclaimer: Contact viking prior to order to confirm Product number.

I had to relocate the turn signals with the supplied kit and due to my choice of mounting location i needed to buy four 2 inch long spacers at the hardware store 1/2" x 2" chrome plated brass pipe fittings and some new bolts.

Looks great! Did you have to use Suzuki brackets or did Viking supply the supports to keep them away from the wheels?

You could make your own brackets real cheap with material from a hardware store. We had a thread about that quite some time ago that explained everything. Easy as pie and coffee at the local cafe.

Nice bags. They are big enough to actually hold stuff and also add a bigger presence on the road.

Cheers Water Warrior, long time no post ( for me )
See your on an M50 now. Whats it like?, they seem very nice a few float round Wellington.

The new saddles are brilliant. Made the whole biking experience far more practical. Hope your well PJ

Nope, afraid not. That was Lynda's bike and was sold last February. They are a nice ride though. A very nice power band and reasonable comfort. We are both cagers now and will be for the foreseeable future. Lynda gave up riding due to health concerns and I just basically lost interest in riding and always dressing up like a power ranger.
But recently I have been watching Craigs List for something old and not abused.
